"Promises Promises" Naked Eyes
Pretty good tune. Sounds like something Bryan Ferry might have done. Very smooooooooth.

I think the announcer dude said the second movie in the series rather than the third. Did I hear that right?

T.Heads "Moon Rocks" -- serious rarity if not a bustout. BOS2

ETA: serious rarity indeed: one prev appearance -- in a DM-era set nearly TEN years ago!

My files indicate another appearance on 16-May-2002.

Reflex, "Politics of Dancing".  another VHM, haven't heard this one in a while

"We got the message / I heard it on the airwaves
The politicians / Are now DJ's"

Quite possible.

John Simon called The Empire Strikes Back "malodorous offal," however this clip is indeed
from 1983.  Ebert's retort of "I don't know what he did as a child" is apparently widely known.
